It is my understanding (always subject to correction as I am still learning) that if the engraving reads "Parker" only, then it is not an American "Parker Bros." shotgun Could you post a few pictures?? Parker Bros. SN should be found on barrel lug, water table, forend iron, trigger guard, butt stock under the trigger guard (requires removal) forend wood (required removal of forend iron). Barrel weights are stamped in pounds and ounces with the ounce number as a superscript. In your case with 14 that would translate to one pound four ounces which is not a realistic weight.
